Winning For Women Action Fund & Aligned Groups Announce Record 2025 Fundraising Haul

$4M total includes record-breaking $1.5M+ in hard dollars that went directly to candidates’ campaigns

WASHINGTON, DC – Winning For Women Action Fund (WFW AF) and its aligned groups brought in $4 million in 2025 to re-elect and advance Republican women in the U.S. Senate and House. The total includes more than $1.5 million in hard dollars for battleground candidates and conservative champions — a record haul in an off-year — with an average of $120,000 going directly to each battleground candidate’s campaign.

The past year marked one of the most successful off-years to date for WFW AF, underscoring the growing national enthusiasm for Republican women who govern effectively and lead on key economic and national security issues. Donors across the country contributed through a mix of national and regional events, with more events and endorsements planned in the coming months. 

“Our fundraising success proves there is momentum behind our mission to elect qualified, exceptional conservative women,” said Danielle Barrow, President of WFW AF. “Our supporters understand that off-year investments are how you build durable candidates and protect majorities, and they’ve responded by giving more to these leaders than ever before. While battleground races remain our top priority, we’re proud to continue backing more than 20 conservative champions for their leadership in strengthening our party and our country.”

“Women candidates have proven time and time again that they can flip and defend some of the toughest seats in the country,” said Meredith Allen Dellinger, Executive Director of WFW AF. “If Republicans want to hold and grow our majorities in Congress, we need to keep recruiting, backing, and investing in more of them. With so much at stake this cycle, we are committed to leading that charge.”
